One of the masterworks of Kenji Mizoguchi: in 17th century Japan, the illicit love between a merchant's wife and her servant leads to tragedy. Based on a story by Chikamatsu and derived from a Bunraku play, "it is perhaps Mizoguchi's most intense and concentrated study of social mores in feudal Japan and among his most visually sensuous films" (Georges Sadoul). Japanese with English subtitles.
